Introduction
Elizabeth Farnsworth, Colored Pencil on Paper
Elizabeth Farnsworth visited Andrews Forest as a Scholar in Residence Oct. 20-25, 2010, and we include her here in Arts in the Andrews because of her artistic contribution to the Forest’s work. Elizabeth trained as a scientist, taught at Smith College, was a Bullard Fellow at Harvard Forest, and is Senior Research Ecologist with the New England Wild Flower Society. From her Andrews Forest experience she produced an essay In the Very Large, the Very Small of reflections about the forest illustrated with pen-and-ink drawings and a photograph
